I honestly feel my frog kick has developed into my greatest swimming strength. Need to get body back in working order as it has been 21 months since on the blocks for a race.
My back went south last monday at work doing just simple bending. Was practically stuck on the ground lol. Was a little better tue, and wed, but still uncomfortable to sit now

May do something else later on if I have the time.
It seems my body is adapting to LP treadmill work more quickly than the anaerobic threshold workouts. Either my LT conditioning was already maxed, or the LP intervals require certain muscle fiber types that weren't developed. Who knows

First treadmill workout in few weeks without any progress. Been building a fence, probably zapping energy as well as time required for proper nutritional needs.

Just got my neck injections, should relieve my hand tingling pain Iíve experienced for perhaps even a decade. Should also support diagnosis of right shoulder. Along this line i went to PT yesterday for rt shoulder, in his diagnosis he is leaning towards the probability of requiring surgical fixing. The one where a torn bicep tendon gets sewed on to another place

1st 50 was UWDK done in 12.5m increments, taking a breath between, and the 4th done as UW atlantis

2nd just kick on back

3rd frog kick with board and snorkel

4th was flutter with board and snorkel

Then put fins on and did 1000 of various drills, bursts, and fun things

Shoulder bugs me without even doing anything. Hand numb and aches, etc. Many appointments and bs to go before anything gets done. Neck injections appointment was cancelled (likely because my ins company decided to change my ID# for 2018). The appt was the 15th and they waited to mssg me this 10 minutes prior to closing today. All they needed was my new ins #. So I left them plenty of messages. Shoulder doc was waiting for neck shots results before doing anything. Stuff gets on hold, but at least I was able to swim, and had fun doing so

Had my first GI screening done on Wed - next appt in 10 yrs so that is good news.

Did about 90 minutes of wine yoga last night. Can,t recall exactly was was accomplished

Really miss the pool even though it consists of just kicking. The closest pool (scm pool that breaks down more than functions) has a water temp that of tap. There is still too much ice on the roads for me to travel 20 min for a swim. Treadmill sets also seem to be augmentative towards kick sets

Practiced hand-to-big-toe yoga stretch standing on a balancing bosu ball (12 minutes of many attempts). Quite difficult to perform, managed 3 seconds tops and just 1 second, or total fails for the rest.

Been out of pool due to superficial injury while cutting parsnips for Christmas dinner. Got sidetracked while dicing away and mistaken my thumb for a carrot. Superglue and a latex bandage worked well.
